The Norwegian Society of Texas

Snorre Chapter

The Norwegian Society of Texas (NST) was organized on March 8, 1975, with the mission to "enjoy, preserve and promote our Norwegian heritage”. The Snorre Chapter serves members in the metro areas of Houston and Galveston.

As it was in the days of the Vikings, NST is governed by the Althing, which is elected by members each year. Each chapter elects its own officers and has wide freedom in conducting its affairs. As a result, each chapter is different. Still, however, membership in one permits participation in all others.

Regardless of background, we welcome anyone interested in enjoying, preserving, and promoting Norway, its culture and heritage.

Vi ønsker deg hjertelig velkommen til Snorre!

Ida was born and raised in Ski, Norway and moved to Texas 9 years ago. She had been a stay-at-home mom up until September 2023, when she and her husband Erik started a gym. Ida manages all the business side including Marketing, Communications, Operations, Customer Relations, Schedules, and anything else that is needed to ensure everything goes smoothly. She also teaches a few classes, but Erik is the rockstar of the gym!

Writing is a passion of hers. Her children's stories are a mix of fiction, along with childhood memories and Norwegian traditions (in her Christmas book).

Ida loves Texas! Growing up surrounded by farms and woods, she has a predilection for ranchers and farmland.
